A media converter is a simple device that sits between the fiber optic cable and the Ethernet cable., LC, SC) matches the port. As a leading provider of fiber optic solutions, Weunion offers a wide range of SFP-compatible products, including optical transceivers, DAC/AOC cables, LC patch cords, and MPO/MTP assemblies. Ethernet ports are designed for copper cables (like Cat5e or Cat6), which transmit data using electrical signals. This allows networks to extend beyond the 100 m copper limit while gaining higher bandwidth and resistance to electromagnetic interference. This allows you to connect devices that use different types of cabling, such as a computer. To help bridge the copper-fiber divide, media converters and transceiver modules (also known as SFPs or mini-GBICs) are often required. They can be used in pairs, with one converter.
